How do you do majority of your Christmas shopping?
I used to LOVE going Christmas shopping! The excitement of walking around the shops looking at all the gifts and then walking back round them again choosing what I wanted. I also used to love planning a day out at a larger shopping centre in a city either Manchester, Liverpool or London and making a day of it.
Now ... I couldn't think of anything worse than spending a day christmas shopping. The crowds, the people grrrrrr!!! I only now make a journey if I know there's something I want from somewhere and then it's normally only to get it and come back.
I think for me I love the internet as 1) it's so convent, I can shop wherever I want and 2) I can search for the best price everywhere before I buy anything. This year I have actually done ALL my shopping online. Apart from a few bits I've picked up from the supermarket when I've been doing my food shop, but these things are something I wouldn't of bought if I hadn't been there kind of thing.
Anyway, my mum mentioned about me being a bargain hunter as I'm obsessed with finding the cheapest thing, and a friend thought it was strange that I haven't actually been 'Christmas shopping' so I just wandered what everyone elsewas like? Or am I just a miserable person nowadays haha?
